1971 European Cup Final

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 1971 European Cup Final was a football match held at Wembley Stadium, London, on June 2, 1971, that saw Ajax Amsterdam of the Netherlands defeat Panathinaikos FC of Greece 2 - 0. An incredible comeback in the 2nd leg of the Semi-final against FK Red Star meant Panathinaikos were the first (and only) Greek side to reach a European Cup Final. However, Ajax were too strong, winning with an early Dick van Dijk strike, and a late goal from substitute Arie Haan. This was the first of an amazing run of 3 European Cup victories in a row for Ajax.
